Em C D


[Verse 1]

Em                              
There's a shadow just behind me,
C                           
shrouding every step I take,
Em                         
making every promise empty,
C                           
pointing every finger at me.

Em                            
Waiting like a stalking butler
C                         
who upon the finger rests.
Em                                  
Murder now the path and must we
C                             
just because the son has come.

Em                              
Jesus, won't you fucking whistle
F                               
something but the past and done?
Em                              
Jesus, won't you fucking whistle
F                               
something but the past and done?


[Chorus]

Em                        
Why can't we not be sober?
F                                
I just want to start things over.
Em                         
Why can't we drink forever.
F                              
I just want to start this over.

[Verse 2]

Em                         
I am just a worthless liar.
C                     
I am just an imbecile.
Em                         
I will only complicate you.
C                            
Trust in me and fall as well.

Em                          
I will find a center in you.
C                           
I will chew it up and leave,
Em                        
I will work to elevate you
C                             
just enough to bring you down.

Em                           
Mother Mary won't you whisper
C                                  
something but what's past and done.
Em                           
Mother Mary won't you whisper
C                                  
something but what's past and done.


[Chorus]

Em                        
Why can't we not be sober?
F                                
I just want to start things over.
Em                         
Why can't we sleep forever.
F                              
I just want to start this over.

I want what I want.
Em                 
I want what I want.
F                  
I want what I want.
